"Antiochus and Stratonice" is a painting by the French Neoclassical artist Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, completed in 1840. The painting depicts a historical scene from the Hellenistic period, where Antiochus, the son of Seleucus I, falls desperately in love with his stepmother Stratonice. The story, which has been a subject of various artistic interpretations, illustrates the noble act of Seleucus, who, upon discovering his son's silent torment and unrequited love, decides to cede Stratonice to his son to save him from his consuming passion.

Ingres, known for his precise draftsmanship and polished surfaces, renders the figures with a sculptural clarity that reflects his admiration for the art of antiquity and the Italian Renaissance. The composition is characterized by a restrained palette and a careful arrangement of figures within a classical architectural setting, which enhances the dramatic intensity of the scene. The emotional depth of the narrative is conveyed through the poignant expressions and gestures of the characters, particularly the languishing Antiochus, who is depicted as weakened and bedridden, and the concerned Stratonice, who is unaware of the cause of his illness.

The painting is a testament to Ingres's mastery of form and his ability to infuse his works with psychological depth, while adhering to the Neoclassical ideals of harmony and ideal beauty. "Antiochus and Stratonice" is an example of Ingres's later work, where he continued to explore themes of love and sacrifice, drawing upon historical and mythological subjects to create timeless compositions that resonate with universal human emotions.

This work is part of Ingres's oeuvre that contributed to his reputation as one of the leading artists of his time, and it remains an important piece for the study of Neoclassicism and the history of French painting. The painting is held in a notable museum collection and continues to be the subject of scholarly attention for its artistic and historical significance.
